The giant panda has an insatiable appetite for bamboo but that is not the case with its notoriously poor breeding capability.
How about a bit of panda porn, Yaa!! that’s what scientists have come up after years of painstaking research that have...
Do you know that we been eating less nutritious wheat and wheat products all these years? It was some 10,000 years ago that ancient farmers first domesticated wheat to breed as a crop that was perfectly suited to making food. But it seems that...
What are your estimates of how different are we from chimps… 1 per cent? But Just as humans seem to be 0.3 per cent genetically different from one another, and not 0.1 per cent, we may be 3 per cent and not 1 per cent different from chimps.
A new...
Chop off a salamander's leg and a brand new will sprout in no time but this ability is not found in most of the animals. Now think of the ability of stem cells to build new body tissues and parts in your body. This is new area of research opened...
Saturn is found active with hurricanes over it for the first time! Cassini has captured images of a storm on the planet’s surface. The clouds are found to reach heights spanning tens of kilometers in altitude, as revealed by different...
Hats off to a team of British scientists! They have built what they say is the world's first artificial stomach – it is a shiny, high-tech box and is capable of simulating human digestion physically. It has a capacity of about half the size of an...
If a major power failure occurs, or simply for restoring power, utility companies have to dispatch electricians all over the place to discover the cause of it. But, some University of Buffalo engineers have designed a better solution to it --...
U.S and Japanese researchers have claimed that stem cells which were grown from mouse embryos had helped in powering a liver replacement device. The cells were used in a bio artificial liver which uses liver cells for replacing liver functions....
One day, perhaps very soon, the concept of the present dreaded and painful vaccinations will disappear! And, more interestingly, it could be replaced by as simple as sticking on a Band-Aid to do the same job!
This ‘skin-patch vaccination’ is one...
It seems, the passenger aircraft of the distant future will not only be fuel-efficient, but also help reduce noise pollution by being virtually silent – not generating its deafening sound. A U.S.-British team of researchers with a long-range research...
Oops! This is pretty threatening a news for workers of a grape vine! But, great news for a grapevine owner, who would love to upgrade his business with technology -- a robotic system that can hand prune grape vines four times faster than a human, has...
It was three years back that FDA hinted at permitting the sale of meat and milk from cloned animals which resulted in negative reactions from the people ranging from curiosity to disgust. Now three years after the incidence, the agency is all set to...
Human liver made in the laboratory! Yes, a team of British University scientists have done just that -- created a mini human liver of the size of a penny coin. It is indeed a major breakthrough in medical science.
This achievement, though is far...
